Title: Windows 2008?
Post by: Beaker on June 21, 2007, 21:51:36 PM
anyone else been playing with this?  Seems to actually be a Good Step Forward.  What im trying to figure out is why it takes up less HDD space and various other resources and its a server OS!

Ive downloaded beta 3 at work but havent got around to trying yet.  Its going to take something special to claw me away from solid 2003.

yeah, im just using is as a test machine to see how well it works.  So far im reasonably impressed with some of the functionality.  The only thing i find odd is that it will install on 8Gb of HDD rather than the 15 that Fista requires.
